KIC 8462852 is a star, between the constellations Cygnus and Lyra, approximately 454 parsecs (1500 light years) from Earth.



Vega is the star from the Sagan book/movie Contact.

So Carl Sagan is an alien that came to earth to tell us the secrets of the universe and left us a hint of his home planet in his book?

Trippy.
